This is on an airport runway very little traction. Slicks cause other cars and 4X4s to run well.

These races dont really tell much

their are a few ls2s run faster than that. its all about the driver. the fastest stock ls2 is 12.21 until the ls3 bone stock beats it the ls2 is faster. now if you put the ls3 in ls1ls2 hands maybe it will be faster.
there was a thread on here can a modded c6 beat a stock c6zo6. every one with the zo6 said no even though i have beat some zo6s times. if i didn't beat ranger or dr rons or blu-by-u times, i cant beat the zo6. we are not talking john car can beat steve car we are talking the car

Went to a dragstrip about 2 months ago.(hot 98 and high humid) a modded 03Z ran 13.6 I ran 13.5 stock no mods. A 06 Viper only did 12.5. it's all about the driver and weather.
